Conversion: An invitation to journey back home! Toward reconciliation with God and others. (Luke 15:1-32)

Jesus Christ was accused of "welcoming sinners and eating with them." - Luke 15:1. This talk will explore how the ministry of Jesus Christ is focused on the "lost", the "sick", the "outcast", the "sinner", and the "marginalized." During the season of Lent, we are invited to draw close to Jesus Christ. The goal of this invitation is reconciliation with God and others.

Mark Kwaku Nimo comes from Ghana in West Africa. He is married to Mercy and has three daughters. Mark has a Masters in Pastoral Studies from Catholic Theological Union and an Ecumenical Doctor of Ministry. He currently serves as Director of Faith Formation at St. Columbanus Church and Augustus Tolton Catholic Academy in the Archdiocese of Chicago. Through his involvement in the Catholic Charismatic Renewal, Mark has ministered in over forty countries worldwide on all continents. For a period of ten years, Mark served as the representative for all Anglophone African countries on the International Catholic Charismatic Renewal Services (ICCRS) office in the Vatican. Mark spent 6 months on the Island of Malta, for his discipleship training school (DTS) with the International Catholic Programme of Evangelization (ICPE) and then he spent two years as a lay missionary in Uganda, East Africa working in discipleship training schools and doing ministry to people with HIV/AIDS.
